Smoking with her

Her home and pride was Northern Ireland; to her Norn Iron.

Grassy, my environment pleasing to a gassy bovine

Limits learn yours, told her I know mine

Spliff demanded a cough tithe

Hackthroated, near to croaking

Looked over at me cock-eyed, astounded

Her ability to boss me about circumscribed

Curtained garden certain mercury required, murky thyme

Working through bushels in double time

Muscling down doubles in furtive dives

Binary sight, simpler times, black and white

Like my untucked shirt and ugly tie

Spilled White Russian sky, out after closing time

Oxides to the nose, stole wine from the Indian I know

Nommed bhaji, leaving need-cleaning khazis numbed

Never let my enemies win, can’t have Brock as Tai

Pan. Lures for backbound daggers, hosting mock ides

Wasn’t as mousey without trousers

Colour this old hound astounded

We smoked it a lush downs it

Big nugs to powder, ground it

She rolls fine joints. My highness redounded to her Highness’ credit

Good credit, never hounded.
